I for one would prefer that we maintain some semblance of focus on our core focus as an organization (promoting and improving the wireless industry). I could sell Amway and consider that to be an additional revenue stream for my WISP, but having me ramble on about that is the last thing anyone here should have to be subjected to.

The last thing we need on this list is more noise to drown our our signal, whether that noise is discussion that is relatively unrelated to the wireless industry (like the original post) or plain old "I don't like this or that so I'm leaving" drama.
Thanks for nipping this one Rick.   Keep up the good work.

my apologies to the members of the list if they found it offensive. Reality is we need to consider content rules as much as need to consider VoIP gateways. since you've arbitrarily decided its not 'proper content' based on your view, I've decided to drop my involvement in WISPA. bye

Subject: [WISPA] New revenue stream

I have client who asked me if a tasteful nude picture web server would
be okay to deploy on the network.

They are willing to pay 5 times the normal rate for co-location, plus
additional fees for high load times.

When I called Qwest to find out about their policy they said they aren't
in the business of clensing the net or otherwise filtering content.

Since this server is not one of the companies, I wonder what sort of
liability exists..

It appears this is a huge source of revenue. In fact the same crew says
they want to provide DRM downloadable movies of the adult nature.

Now I've watched with some interest, what the major hotel chains are
doing and how much pay per view adult movies add to their bottom line. I
don't think this is a simple - you know I don't like it myself  -
answer. Its policy, revenue and finding the proper ground.

Any experience with this?
